history

The first historical mention of Đurđenovac comes from 1680 . The actual development of Đurđenovac began in the second half of the 19th century after the Viennese merchant Joseph Pfeiffer opened a sawmill in Đurđenovac in 1866 . The sawmill was later taken over by the Belgian company "Marchetti-Lamarche". High-quality Slavonian oak quickly attracted investors, so that the sawmill was operated since 1886 under the name "Neuschloß, Schmidt and Marchetti", which was coined after the last names of the owners at the time. The development of the urban settlement ran parallel to the development of the industrial facilities of Đurđevac. Office and workers' housing, a health center, a primary school, a kindergarten, a public swimming pool, numerous office offices, shops, inns and a library were built to meet the needs of the workers and their families. At the end of the 19th century and until the 1930s, the majority of the population consisted of Germans and Hungarians.

economy

Derzeiturđenovac's current economy is based on the former timber industry, which operated from 1876 (the first sawmill to operate from 1866) until it went bankrupt in the late 1990s. In addition to the wood processing industry, the chemical industry and the food industry are also represented. In late June 2015, one of the furniture production facilities was destroyed in a fire that left hundreds of people unemployed and Đurđevac's industrial production was seriously damaged. 60.8% of the population are employed in the manufacturing sector. The second most common field of activity is trade (13.1%). According to the structure of the employees in the manufacturing sector, the largest number of employees was in the areas of furniture manufacture (67.3%) and wood processing and production (17%) as well as in other areas of the machine and plant industry (10.6%) and in of food and beverage production, production of metals (2.4%) and production of chemicals and chemical products (1.2%).
